Education reflection

Discussion: The purpose for this investigation was to measure the diameter of the human hair using the knowledge of physics of diffraction and interference and the way light waves travel through a medium. The measurements made in this experiment were done using a ruler, a measuring tape and the wavelength of the laser beam used. The measuring tape was used to measure the distance from the hair to the wall. The ruler was used to measure the distance from the centre of the bright band to the center

How does Dirt Music articulate the main concepts which foregrounds your personal reading? Tim Winton’s novel “Dirt Music” explores universal experiences and the fragility of the human condition, enabling the extrapolation of many personal readings due to its textual integrity. A personal reading foregrounds self-imposed solitude catalysed by paralysis from grief and traumatic events, which results in emotional suppression and deterioration of identity. Post-modern globalisation exacerbates such

the ray reflects back off the mirror it is then called the reflected ray. As the light rays hit and leave the mirror at particular angles these are titled angle of incidence and angle of reflection which can be seen in the figure 2 below. By the first law of reflection it is assumed that the angle of reflection is equal to the angle of incidence. This would only be true for totally reflective flat surfaces. When light rays come into contact with convex and concave mirrors parallel to the normal

“sighing, turning, move away” suggests that the persona is closing the window, hence highlighting the reluctant connotations of change and growth. Ultimately, we must be willing to embrace anomalies to grow as individuals. New ideas derived from self-reflection enable us to develop in ways that are spiritually linked to the future. The inexorable passage of adulthood is established by the motif of time, indicating that life is continuously moving forward. The personification of time “guiltless minute hand”

PH4604 Topics in Applied Physics: Bioimaging and Sensing Chin Zong Yang U1340544E Fiber Optic Biosensors Abstract: This paper studies the clinical use of fiber optic biosensors, its advantages over traditional means of detection and limitations of this new technology. An in-depth study of its history, how the technology works, and comparisons with older methods of bio-sensing will also be made. Introduction: A biosensor is a device or method that allows a certain specific biological material

Refraction The term refraction is the bending behaviour of light when it passes through from one transparent medium to another transparent medium such as water, glass, vacuum, air, plastic etc. Refraction of Light The refraction of light shows that light refracts every time it travels at an angle from a medium to the next medium with a different refractive index (optical density). The refraction of light demonstrate that change of direction which light travels is caused by a change in speed of

PHYS 2240 August 10, 2015 Experiment 11 Reflection, Refraction, the Dispersion of Light, and Brewster's angle Zhecheng shi Introduction In this lab we will figure out the connection between incidence angle and reflection angle using concave mirror and convex mirror at part A. In part B, we will determine the relationship between incidence angle and refraction angle for a light going through a rhombus prism. Rhombus prism, three-way mirror, light source, and

How does a Lens Refract Light? Convex Lens: Convex lens is a converging lens and are thicker in the middle. As rays of light passes through the lens, the rays are brought close together (converge) When parallel rays of light passes from an optical less dense medium (air) through a convex lens (glass), the refracted rays converge at one point called the focal point. The distance between the principal focus and the centre of the lens is called the focal length. Concave Lens: Concave lens is a diverging

has been improved by encapsulating rectangular defect, thereby increasing the power transmission of about 98.1%. A simple antiresonant reflecting optical waveguide (ARROW-B) is a polarization insensitive wave guiding, which utilizes antiresonance reflection and provides better coupling when compared with conventional wave guiding. We performed three-dimensional finite-difference time-domain (3-D FDTD) simulation to calculate the power transmission of Y-splitter with ARROW-B which is about 93.3%. The

Can you see the light? As the burning of petroleum-based fuels, natural gases, and coal continues, smog will continue to cover the sky. Pollution from said burning occurs as greenhouse gases and chemicals. Specifically, petroleum-based fuels, natural gases, and coal release energy when heat breaks the bonds between hydrogens and carbons, generating energy and releasing carbon dioxide and water as byproducts. This energy often originates from stored energy preserved in organisms that eventually died
